Maalik box office collection day 4: Rajkummar Rao plays the titular role in film directed by Pulkit.

Overview

  • Maalik collected around Rs 14.1–14.25 crore net from Friday to Sunday, with day-wise earnings of roughly Rs 3.75–4.02 crore on opening day, Rs 5.25 crore on Saturday and approximately Rs 5.1–5.25 crore on Sunday.
  • The film’s Rs 14.25 crore weekend falls significantly short of its estimated Rs 60–70 crore break-even threshold.
  • Superman led the holiday frame with an estimated Rs 26 crore in India, while Anurag Basu’s Metro… In Dino added Rs 11.75 crore in its second weekend to reach about Rs 38.55 crore.
  • Vikrant Massey and Shanaya Kapoor’s Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan managed only Rs 1.2 crore over three days, highlighting stiff competition.
  • Strong word-of-mouth and interior market turnout drove occupancy peaks around 29–30 percent in evening shows, but sustained weekday collections will be critical for recovery.
